For my entire life, the region I live in NYC has been represented by a black person in the new york city city council/the new york state assembly or senate, the federal house of representatives . The city I live in now, has two black mayors in its history.
Black elected officials are not new to me, I live with them representing me in the bureaucracy of the government I live under my entire life.
But what is their worth ?
In the end, black elected representatives aren't worth anything.
Yes, black people talk about individual inspiration. But to the black community in NYC, what value are black elected representatives?
A community of individuals , is great for individuals. Individuals can be mayors/presidents/billionaires/millionaires/kings , in a community of individuals each individual is free, but the community is worthless.He doesn't offer, like most black elected officials in the USA , any policy or potential law suggestions of any quality.
He has spoken on law enforcement as a prime issue. He is a former law enforcer, which in itself is always interesting when one is black , even in the individualist black community in the usa.....
I hate his idea of plainclothes law enforcers, to me, every law enforcer needs to have aneon uniform on at all times, and definitely as long as they carry a gun, which they are legally demanded to do at all times.ARTICLE
